Healthy eating is quite simple – eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. It’s all about making the right food choices but doesn’t it at times feel hard, too boring and just no fun. You know fresh fruit is what you should eat, but what you crave for is that packet of Pure Magic or that bar of golden brown chocolate. But eating right doesn’t have to be boring if you add a dash of honey to your diet.
The great flavor and natural sweetness of honey not only satisfy your sweet tooth but also adds that something important to foods – nutrition. It contains small amounts of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, and even antioxidants.
In ancient days, honey was the only sweetener known to man. Often described as the elixir of life and the food of the gods, honey is an important part of religious ceremonies. Besides being a sweetener, honey is also valued for its therapeutic effect and forms the base of many ayurvedic medicines.
